Lyrics
The Boll Weevil
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The same one you walked away from
The same one that you made cry
That same one is begging
Please give our love another try
The same one you said you needed
The same one who needed you
That same one is lonely
Please mend the heart you've broken in two
Although you're fickle-hearted, darling, I will forgive
'cause I knew the day we parted, without you I could not live
The same one you played a game with
The same one who gave his all
That same one is waiting
Completely at your beck and call
The same one
The same one
The same one
The same one
I'm the same one
The same one
The same one
